4 ~ Demons are they Good or Evil?
(⬆️What Bella is Wearing⬆️)
🔥🖤🏨☠️
Charlie, Vaggie and Angel Dust stare at her in shock and Charlie asked, looking excited, "wait, really?"
"I have worked at hotels before, so I have a familiarity with them, furthermore I think that your proposal is a brilliant idea, it is a major deal, please allow me to be your helping hand if you think this could aid those Demon," Bella said and Vaggie asked, "you really think so?"
"Yes, I read the book of Galatians when I was bored, 'If someone is caught in a Sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently'" Bella said as Charlie grinned and hugged Bella and said, "oh, thank you, thank you! You are so sweet and do not worry, I will find a way to get you back safe and sound," and Bella looked up at her and asked, "you promise??"
"I pinky promise!" Charlie said, bringing out her pinky and Bella smiled and linked her pinky with hers, this is going to be an interesting adventure for her.
🔥🖤🏨☠️
The limousine arrives at the hotel, as the hotel door opens to show a very old and run-down establishment, Bella grimaces at how deserted it appeared and makes a mental not to make a project design, she will also create a larger design to consider for the interior, Vaggie throws on the couch, facing the wall and she then annoyance, "ugh!!" Angel was rummages through the fridge leaning by the wall and grabbing a box of Popsies, Bella notices the box is leaking meaning the Popsies are melting, Angel could not careless and takes one out and licks it, Charlie was sitting on the crate looking downcast, Bella frowns and sits down next to her, attempting to comfort her to which she appreciates it, Angel notices and attempts to cheer her up.
"Eh, it is probably a good idea to get some actual food in this place, y'know to feed all the wayward souls you got in here! ahaha, aha... eh... ah.," and seeing that Charlie is not laughing while Bella gives him a look that says 'now is not a great time', Angel then closed the fridge door as he tries to comfort Charlie but decides to back off, Charlie gets up and exists the hotel, Bella feels that she needs to help as she follows after her.
🔥🖤🏨☠️
Outside of the hotel, Charlie pulls out her phone and contacts her mother, she puts her phone and contacts her mother, she then puts her phone up to her ear and hears it ringing for a second until it bleeps, showing that her mother is not answering, Charlie sighs and leaves a voicemail, "hay, mom, I know I keep calling and you must be busy... really busy... but, um, the interview did not go well," she then shrinks to her knees, "and... I do not know if I am ever going to make a difference," Charlie starts tearing up as she wipes it off her face and continues. "I do not know what I am doing, I could really use some advice, mom I... I think dad was right about me... aha, off, eh, anyways," she then wipes her face once more and stands up, "I will stop taking before this gets long, love you, bye..." Charlie hangs up and goes to walk in when she notices the door opens to reveal a concerned Bella.
"Everything okay? Sorry I overheard you."
"It is fine..." Charlie said, glancing away.
"You know, I do not think you need to get the support from your parents and other Demons there, you got to start believing in yourself."
"There is no point," Charlie sighed.
"That is where you are wrong, I mean who cares what the other Demons say, if they do not like it then that is their problem not yours, you are not the problem here, it is those who do not believe in changing things to be good again," Bella said placing a hand on Charlie's shoulder, "you have to fight, Charlie, show them that anything is possible."

A light shine on Charlie and the place disappears, she looks up at row upon row of different mirrors and Bella's face appears in them.
🎶There's always gonna be someone
Tryin' to tear you down
Mockin' you for your mistakes
Oh
Charlie turns to find Bella a few feet apart from her with a spotlight shining on her as well the mirrors made a path.
🎶There's always gonna be someone
Messin' your head around
Bella holds out a hand and Charlie smiles and runs up to her.
🎶Watchin' you to see you break
So
The mirrors flipped down to make stairs as Bella runs upstairs with Charlie following after.
🎶Don't you let 'em call you out
Brush away the shame and doubt
Remember what you're all about
And then
Bella and Charlie take each other's hands and jumps off and goes through the bright mirror like a portal as they're in the purple galaxy full of stars, they land on another mirror that lights up below them.
🎶Show 'em who you are
Show 'em that you're strong
Show 'em that you know where you belong
Different mirrors show Charlie's face in them as she smiles, more mirrors appear and surround them.
🎶Open up their eyes
Force 'em all to see
Let 'em all to see
And you'll always be
Unbreakable
Lights flashes through the mirrors and stars sparkle in the spaces in between as Charlie looks around in awe.
🎶Unbreakable
Unbreakable
Unbreakable, yeah
Charlie starts singing.
🎶There's always gonna be someone
Sayin' you're somethin' less
Bella sings next
🎶Let 'em talk
You know your heart
Bella and Charlie take each other's hand and spin around.
🎶Oh
The two started running up the mirror stairs.
🎶There's always gonna be someone
Callin' you second best
Shut 'em down
Don't6 fall apart
No
They meet on the top and land on the mirror as the light and sparkle glows below them.
🎶Don't you let 'em in your head
Doesn't matter what they said
Get up your feet instead
And then
Bella and Charlie jump up and files past each other with stars trailing behind them, landing on the mirror, the two begin sliding through the mirrors with their own color trailing beneath their feet.
🎶Show 'em who you are
Show 'em that you're strong
Show 'em they've been
Seeing all wrong
Bella and Charlie meet each other on the end of the mirror and float towards each other as they take each other's hands.
🎶Open up their minds
Throw away the key
Tell 'em that you are
And you'll always be
Unbreakable
Bella and Charlie jump down floating stairs of mirrors as their own color glows underneath them.
🎶Unbreakable, yeah
Charlie looks around the mirrors full of Bella's face as she glides through.
🎶You define yourself
Bella too is looking at the mirrors full of Charlie's face and gliding as she vocalizes
🎶You and no one else
They meet each other toward each other's hands once again.
🎶Show 'em who yo are
Show 'em that you're strong
They place their hands against each other's through the mirror as they glow.
🎶Show 'em that you've known it
All along
Open every door
The mirror in front in front of them exploded into stars as they face each other fully and holding onto each other's hands.
🎶Own your destiny
Live as if you are
What you were
And you've been
And you'll always be
Unbreakable
Faces of people appear in the flashing mirrors, both Demons and humans.
🎶Unbreakable
Unbreakable
The mirror spin, coming together on the form of circles around Bella and Charlie, then explode into a bright light.
🎶Unbreakable
Unbreakable
Bella and Charlie then hug each other, they eventually found each other back outside the hotel, Charlie releases herself from the hug.
"Thank you, Bella I will return the favor."
"No need, cheering you up is the best I can do," Bella said, opening the door for Charlie to go inside, Charlie goes inside, nodding to her in thanks before Bella comes in last, both Charlie and Bella were about to see Vaggie and Angel when a suddenly a knock can be heard from the other side of the door, surprising them all, Charlie urges her to hide as Bella did by running away to find some place to hide, Charlie then turns back and contemplates on whether or not to open the door but decides to open it anyway and the mysterious figure watching her performance from before can be seen standing before her as he opens his glowing red eyes, he is a slim, dapper sinner Demon with beige-colored skin and usually has a broad smile full of sharp, yellow teeth.
He sports a pinkish-red cropped, angled bob-cut with black tips at the ends and two large, black tipped cuffs of hair extending from the top of his head, evoking the ears of a deer, the style has an undercut at the back and two small black antlers protruding from crown, which can grow in size in his full Demonic form, his eyes have dark-red sclerae, bright-red irises and thin black pupils, his forearms and lower legs fade to dark grey and he has red hoofed toes and red fingers.
He wears a red pinstripe coat with dark-red lapels piped with white, which is ragged along the bottom hem, underneath this he wears a bright red dress-shirt with black cross on the chest and long black dress pants with matching bright red cuffs, he also wears a dark-red oval-shaped monocle, rimmed with dark, over his right right eye, he accessorizes with a black knotted bowtie with a bright red center, black gloves with red at the fingertips and black pointed-toe boots with red deer hoofprints emblazoned on the soles and carries a thin cane with a sentient vintage style microphone attached to it.
"hel-"
He gets door slammed in front of him by Charlie, she looks to side for a brief moment before opening the door again.
"-lo," he finished before getting door slammed in front of his once more.
"Hay, Vaggie?" Charlie called nervously.
"Whaat?" Vaggie answered in annoyance.
"The Radio Demon is at the door," Charlie said, gesturing a smiling face gesture on her face and Vaggie sits up, fully alarmed, "what?!"
Angel takes out the popsicle from his mouth and asked, "uh... who?'
Bella peeks her head out from the cover of the crate she is hiding inside.
"What should I do?" Charlie asked, looking scared.
"Uh, well- do not let him in," Vaggie said and Charlie then decides to disregard Vaggie's advice once more and opens the door for the deer Demon and asked, "may I speak now?"
"You may..." Charlie started and he cuts her off and reaches a handout and introduced himself as he pulled Charlie towards him, "Alastor, pleasure to be meeting you, sweetheart you, sweetheart, quite a pleasure!"
Alastor then lets himself in, hearing those footsteps made Bella quickly hide back inside the crate, peeking a hole that was made as she listens and Alastor said playing with his mic staff, "excuse my sudden visit but I saw your fiasco on a picture show and I just could not resist, what a performance, why I have not been that entertained since the stock market crash of 1926, Hahaha, so many orphans..."
Vaggie holds a harpoon towards his chest, cutting him off, "stop right there, Cabròn hijo de perra (You bastard son of a bitch) I know your game and I am not gonna let you hurt anyone here, you pompous cheesy talk show Shatford!" Angel head then pops in, unamused as Alastor uses his finger to move the harpoon away.
"Dear, if I wanted to hurt anyone here..." he then turns into his Demonic form, "I would have done so already..." and the screen distort as both Charlie and Vaggie stare at him in fear and even Bella is terrified as she shrinks herself down, Alastor quickly snaps back to reality and said, "no, I am here because I want to help."
"Say what now?" Charlie raised her eyebrow.
"Help," Alastor repeated himself, tapped on his mic, "hahahah, hello, is this thing on, testing, testing?"
Alastor's mic open its eye and speaks, "well, I heard you loud and clear!"
"Um, you want to help, with?" Charlie asked and Alastor teleports behind the two with his shadow and said, "this ridiculous thing you are trying to do, this hotel I want to help you run it."
"Buut... why?" Charlie again.
"Hahah, why does anyone do anything? Sheer, absolute boredom, I have lacked inspiration for decades," and Alastor leans himself against Vaggie until he shoves her off and continues, "my work became mundane, lacking focus aimless, I have come to crave a new form of entertainment, hahaha!"
"Does getting into a fistfight with a reporter count as entertainment?" Charlie asked with a nervous smile and Alastor grinned and said, "hahah, it is the purest kind, my dear, Reality, true passion, after all the world is a stage and the stage is a world of entertainment," and Charlie loos hopeful as she asks him again, "so does this mean you think it is possible to rehabilitated a Demon?"
"Hahahhahahaha," Alastor shakes hand in front of her, much to her dismay and said, "of course not, that is wacky nonsense," and he shakes head back and forth and said, "redemption oh the non-existent humanity, no, no, no, no I do not think there is anything left that could save such loathsome Sinners," he looks over to Vaggie who is offended and Angel who just shrugs with Bella blinking through the hole, which Alastor did not even notice just yet.
"The chance given was the life they lived before, the punishment is this, there is no undoing what is done," Alastor said putting his arms out and gesturing the entirety of Hell and Charlie asked looking confused, "so then why do you wanna help me if you do not believe in my case?"
"Consider it an investment in ongoing entertainment for myself," as Alastor pulls Charlie close to him and twirls her and he said grinning dark at end, "I want to watch the scum of the world struggle to climb up the hill of betterment only to repeatedly trip and tumble down to the fiery pit of failure!"
Charlie removes his hand from her back, "riiight."
"Yes, indeedy!" Alastor then grabs her by the waist and drags her off somewhere and said "I see big things coming your way and who better to help you than I?"
As the two talk, Angel turns to Vaggie and asked gesturing to Alastor, "uh, so...uh what is the deal with Smiles over there?"
"Wait, you have never heard of him before, you have been here longer than me?!" Vaggie asked in exasperation, Angel shrugs cluelessly, Bella carefully peeks her head but not fully and Vaggie asked, hoping he would get it, "the Radio Demon, one of the most powerful beings Hell has ever seen?"
Angel shrugs a second time and said, "eh, not big on politics."
"How powerful are we talking about here?" Bella asked quietly.
"I will tell you since you are curious," Vaggie said softly before glaring at Angel leaning in on him as she began her story, "decades ago Alastor manifested in Hell seemingly overnight, he began to topple Overlords who have been dominate for centuries, that kind of raw power had never been harnessed by a mortal soul before, then he broadcast his carnage all throughout Hell just so everyone could witness his ability, Sinners started calling him 'The Radio Demon' (as lazy as that is) many have speculated what unimaginable force enabled him to rival our world's most ancient and destructive evils, but one thing's for sure, he is an unpredictable source of danger, a wicked spirit of mystery and a violent monster of chaos, the likes of which we cannot risk getting involved with unless we want to end up erased," and as she continues to narrate the tale, Bella grows more concerned because she was relieved to meet Demons, Charlie, Vaggie, Angel and Cherri that were not evil as the Overlords.
"Ya done?" Angel asked before laughing dryly, "he looks like strawberry pimp," as if on cue Alastor summons his mic staff and Vaggie said, crossing her arms, "well I do not trust him," and Angel asked, "to be fair do you trust any man, any men, men?"
Ignoring him as turns around and grabs Charlie by the shoulder and said, 'Charlie, listen to me you cannot believe this creep he just is not just a happy face he is a deal-marker, pure evil, he cannot be redeemed and is most likely looking for a way to destroy everything we are trying to do!"
"I..." Charlie sighed, "we do not know that, look I know he is bad and I know he probably does not wanna change but the whole point of this is to give people a chance," and Alastor was examines a picture of the royal family, nevertheless, he pauses and walks over to the black backpack that Bella left on the couch next to Angel, Angel notices and begins to perspire uncomfortably as he tries to avoid looking at the crate Bella is hiding in, Alastor sniffs it and examines it.'
"To have faith things will be better, how can I turn someone away? I cannot, it goes against everything I am trying to do, everything I believe," Charlie said, putting her hands on Vaggie's shoulders, "just... trust me, I can take care of myself," and Vaggie hesitates for a moment and then gives in, "Charlie, whatever you do, do Not make a deal with him!"
Alastor makes a gesture with his hand, seemingly focusing on Vaggie while looking a Bella's backpack.
"Do not worry, I picked up one thing from my dad," Charlie starts imitating her dad's voice, "you do not take shit from other Demons," and Charlie walks off to where Alastor is and said, "okay so Al, you are sketchy as fuck and you clearly see what I am trying to do here as a joke," as Charlie turns away, glowing red symbols start to appear beside Alastor which quickly disappear after Charlie turns back to Alastor as Charlie continues making gestures with hands, "but I do not, I think everyone deserves a chance to prove they can be better so I am taking your offer to help, on the condition that there be no tricks or voodoo strings attached."
"So, it is a deal then?" Alastor rolls his eyes at that last statement he twirls his mic staff and presents his hand for a handshake as green energy bursts throughout the hotel, Charlie quickly refuses his handshake as she moves is hand away and said, "nope, no shaking, no deals, I... hmm... as Princess of Hell and the heir to the throne, I uh, hereby order that you help with this hotel, for as long as you desire," and a howling wolf can be heard in the background as Charlie looks over to Vaggie for approval who glances away.
"Sound fair?"
Alastor rubs his chin for a moment before agreeing, "hmm... fair enough," he said retracting his mic staff.
"Cool beans," Charlie sighed in relief giving out two thumbs up.
"Hmm hm hmm hmm..." Alastor continues to hum while looking around as he stops in front of VAggie and said, "smile my dear," he then tickles the underside of her chin making her start to release hot kettle of her anger and continues, "you know you are never fully dressed without one," he then walks away as he continues humming with Vaggie glaring daggers at him and asked. "so where is your hotel staff?"
"h, well-" Charlie gestures to Vaggie who is staring at Alastor dead in eyes, Alastor adjusts his monocle as he chuckles, "ohohoho, you are going to need more than that," he then walks towards Angel Dust and asked, "and what can you do, my effeminate fellow?"
"I can suck your dick," Angel grinned without shame and the mic feedback can be heard in the background as Alastor tries to process what he was just offered and quickly snaps back to reality, "hah, No."
"You loss," Angel scoffed.
"Now before I help, I am curious to know something," he had both Charlie and Vaggie puzzled until to their horror he pulled out Bella's backpack and asked looming over to them, "you never told me that had a visitor and this one reek of human, do tell me where is that lovely guest of yours?"
"Uh, I do not know what you are talking about, that could be anyone's," Charlie lied through her nervous smile and Vaggie snatches Bella's backpack back and added, "yeah and there isn't anyone besides me, Charlie and Angel Dust."
Hmm..." Alastor scans the area before he noticed that Angel is focusing on the crate, to Angel's fear and shame he slowly moves towards it as he follows his gaze, when Bella sees him coming towards her, she shuts her mouth and stay silent and Charlie, Vaggie and Angel hold their breath as Alastor pulls to a stop in front of them and begins to open the crate carefully, as soon as her hiding place was revealed, Bella's heart began to beat rapidly as soon as he sees her, Alastor smiles widely.
"Well, well what a lovely fresh meat you brought in..." He said in a Demonic tone and Bella gasps as she looks up at Alastor knowing there is nothing she can do to get away or defend herself given the knowledge of his power that she gained through Vaggie's tale.
